I'm heading to San Diego tonight for the surgury on Wednesday 1/5/2010 with Dr. Aceves, and still have a cold. Does anyone have any info on this? I don't want to reschedule! I've been waiting for months!

I had the same issue the day before my surgery. I went to see my primary care doctor the morning before surgery. He advised me to take my allergy meds round the clock til surgery and gave me a decongestant nose spray. I followed orders and went into surgery with a bit of a sore throat but all was well. I am five days out and still have the sore throat which is likely due to sinus drainage caused by my allergies. So my advice would be if you have time see your doctor before leaving as I know that it put my mind at ease to know that I was given the all clear.
